This was the week Caleb was born. We did this as a theme instead of a letter theme or our Bible Curr. b/c it was such a hectic time. He is now 2 months old and I am just now putting this blog together. Jordyn LOVES doing seasonal themes, I'm guessing b/c it is something different than the usual 'school.' We focused on PUMPKINS first, then LEAVES, APPLES, and SCARECROWS. I wish I had more pictures of all the fun things we did. We sang fall songs, collected fall items outside, read the cutest scarecrow book,"The Little Scrarecrow Boy." I am excited to begin our NATIVITY theme starting Dec. 1st and lasting all month. After that we will do a winter theme in Jan.
How much fun it was here are a few of our moments.

I created this activity, very easy and she loved it!

Got this at the Target $1 spot ......MY FAV. PLACE!

I saw this quick and easy craft on Pinterest. I pretty much did it though. Not exactly developmentally appropriate.

After editing the pictures for weeks 9 and 10, I am excited to blog about these weeks. If you are looking at the blog on an apple device ( IPHONE or IPAD) try to view it on a windows PC. The reason being, the videos I post, for some odd reason, do not show up on these devices. The videos at the end of this blog are worth watching.

Dueteronomy 6:7-9

You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
